Our Journey To You

Amnio Day

Your Dad and I went to the hospital today for the amnio test. I was so nervous and your Dad did everything he could to chill me out. Your Dad is an awesome guy who I can’t wait for you to meet. He puts his head on my tummy to see if he can feel you wriggling about. Nothing yet. 

The procedure was strange, the doctor was prodding you with the ultrasound scanner to get you to move out of the way, you didn’t like it one bit. Once you’d moved he jabbed me with the needle, which hardly hurt at all, but when then needle penetrated my uterus and your lil bubble it felt so strange, never felt anything quite like it. Your Dad was watching the whole thing on the screen. 

Before we went in, we were asked if we wanted to know whether you were a girl or a boy, as they can tell from the results, we said yes straight away. Monday or Tuesday next week, we will know if you are ok. Can’t wait. 

I’ve figured out a great way of telling your Dad, he will be working a late shift next week, so is going to be at work when I find out. I’ve figured a fun way of telling him what you are…
